Administrators for the Boy Scouts of America want to get people's general opinion on whether the organization should accept openly gay troops and members.

According to GLAAD, calls to the BSA's National Service desk (972-580-2330) ask callers, "Are you for or against the change in policy?" Emails can also be sent to nationalsupportcenter@scouting.org.

The call for feedback comes as the Boy Scouts national board of directors will vote on the policy at its meeting next week. GLAAD is also urging people to spread the word on the Scouts' call for feedback through social media.
